Book One of the Copenhagen Trilogy memoir is a brave look at Tove Ditlevsen’s childhood in working class Copenhagen where she knows that she is a misfit in her family and her neighborhood. This is where she discovers that she wants to be a poet and a writer. Told with complete honesty and a vivid portrait of girlhood, it is a brave and beautiful memoir.
MY FAVORITE NOVEL OF ALL TIME! The origin point for all modern horror and science fiction, dreamed up by a teenage goth girl hellbent on scaring her hipster boyfriend and his buds--aka the Romantics. Still terrifying and relevant more than 200 years later.
This debut novel by acclaimed short story writer Carlos Castán is a deeply moving and darkly rewarding novel, reminiscent of Javier Marías. A middle-aged man, fighting depression, seeks solace in the friendship of Jacobo. Both men discuss books, movies and lost relationships deep into the night, that is until Jacobo is found stabbed to death. More introspective and probing than thriller, the voice of the protagonist burrows deep into the reader's mind, not releasing its grip until the final page. Dense, literary and philosophical, BAD LIGHT is sentence by sentence, one of the strongest, best-written novels of the year.
Sharks in the Time of Saviors is a raw, glorious debut combining ancient gods and modern realities. Kawai Strong Washburn is a lyrical genius, weaving a strange story of family, heritage, and the bonds of grief. Washburn's Hawai'i seeps off the pages; warm, dangerous, and full of mystery.
Deeply fascinating and frighteningly timely, a new Smith novel set in a post-pandemic world that's ill in more ways than just the virus. When you're ready, give this a read.
The strange world of Mordew is imaginative, disturbing, and hard to look away from. In this fantasy story you follow a boy named Nathan as he discovers the truth about the world and himself. I highly recommend this book. Pheby has created a unique world that I have not seen anything else like.
Wonderful gothic mystery about a divinity student masquerading as a sergeant and a stubborn and adventurous female journalist working to solve the mystery surrounding a window-jumping seamstress.
This book made me reconsider whether I should move to New York City and become a book editor. Nora and Charlie are rivals in the publishing world but find that they actually might make a good team. A love story that is also a love letter to older sisters and from the perspective of the girl who is usually left behind.
PS--It's a happy ending!

Perhaps the mission of an artist is to interpret beauty to people –– the beauty within themselves.
